turbo Ls trouble
Im not to shure on what to do now but sence i have only one car and it keeps braking im thinking abought somthing new. the story is when i was on my way to work thanksgiving morning there was very little cars on the freeway so i was going extra fast like 140+ when i put my car in nutral to role off my exit i hurd somthing metal draging. so i pull off the road as soon as i could only to pop my hoop and see my tial wastgate lying on the ground. I was like wtf. the manifold is a ssautocrome one i got off ebay and it is the biggest peace of **** ever. I just had it all rewelded and braced 2weeks befor because it was serviely cracked. so now im stuck between getting a new ride like a rx-7 or somthing allready turbo or fixing what i have now. my curent set up is a 99Ls with t3/4e 63trim 2 1/2 downpipe to stock exhast but in order to fix what i got i would have to get a coustom manifold or have a new downpipe made to fit a diffrent manifold. one way or the other it is gonna cost more loot than i got. So if i just sell most of my parts and car i would be able to afford somthing nice with left over turbo parts to add on. Once u go turbo u dont go back.

Re: turbo Ls trouble (bl18t)
well i hate to say this but your brought this on your self bro. everyone on here knows ebay manifolds suck. just get a new manifold from cody (like a shorty) and have him make you a DP. or learn how to weld and make it ur self

ssautochrome manifolds suck, u shouldn't have run that to begin with. you need a lovefab sst manifold. that'll be sick and wont crack like the ssautochrome. thats all you need man...and then you can get that thing runnin again...
